Unfortunately this style didn't work for me. It is beautifully made as are all Wacoal items. I have been wearing the Basic Tshirt bra for years, still my favorite!

I always wear a 38Hbinnthe Awareness Bra, but the same size in this bra is not as comfortable because the cup appears to be smaller. By the time I get the girls pushed into the cup, I have overflow at the top. I will be able to wear it but will go back to the Awareness bra when I purchase again.

When I ordered this bra I checked the page that shows the bra. It has a box to the right with D cup. When I clicked it, there were two choices, D cup and +. D cup shows a back view of 2 hooks, + shows 3 hooks. I was ordering a D cup so I expected two hooks. But these bras had 3 hooks. I feel this was misleading. I would not have ordered it if I knew there were 3 hooks.

Not as comfortable as other Wacoal bras I have bought. Sometimes 38 is great; sometimes it is a bit tight. This bra looked similar to one I really liked but it's just not.

As with all the Wacoal bras I have tried over the last 6-10 months, it is not supportive enough for larger sizes. I wear a DDD and sometimes a DD. Wacoal is not meeting the bar in support. I have tried a number of Wacoal's bras. I've tried enough. I probably won't try anymore until Wacoal gets more support in the larger sizes.

Wacoal is the only brand I wear, but this bra is not up to the standards I expect. I love the style, cut and cups, but the straps are too short and even at the longest adjustment are too snug. Also, the hardware is placed right on the shoulder blade and becomes quite painful.

Gives great shape but the wires need padding. The wires have a cover but no padding and dig into my ribcage and underarm. I wear the Simone Sports Bra almost daily and the placement of the wires outside the inner fabric is much more comfortable. Also, it would be great if you would put both the name and the style number on the bra tag as well as your advertising so a customer can locate it more easily.

Have been waiting for this style to come in for months! After waiting so long I ordered 2 different sizes. This size, 36 DD, is too big. Will be keeping the smaller size, 34 DD!

I liked the fit of this bra. It is soft and provided enough support for everyday wear. However, after only wearing it about a month, the underwire has already poked through the fabric.

The bra is nice, good material and workmanship. In my opinion it runs small. I was fitted 2 months ago at a very reputable Women's store and when I received this bra, everything was small, the band and cup size. So disappointed.

I bought this and another bra a couple of weeks ago. The left side wire under my arm is cutting in. I can not wear for very long. The other style I bought I am very pleased with. Returns in Canada are not easy and it shows you pay a restocking charge and you have to pay shipping. Not happy but because I do not have the hanger it came on I cannot return.

After reading reviews on the bra, I ordered a cup size up from my usual DD. After receiving it, the cups were still too small. The actual cups themselves fit but the edging on the top of the cup is awkward and it cut into my chest creating a bulge.

I love the lift this bra gives but I find the underwire to be a bit hard and uncomfortable.

As this is a "lift up" type of bra, I expected it to be padded. I should have read the description better.

I have 4 Warcoal bras all the same size. This one fits smaller all around than the rest.

This is one of the most comfortable bras I have ever worn...and I have been wearing a bra for a long time! The straps are wide enough, and stay in place as the placement of the straps is fabulous! The problem is that the lift I was expecting was not as promised. I went up from a 36DD to a 36DDD as advised by the WACOAL fitting expert which was great advice. She enthusiastically assured me that the lift would be better than the Retro Chic. Not so, not so. I will keep this bra as it isn't bad but will reorder a Retro Chic. Now, that delivers a nice lift. My shape from the chart is a combination of East to West and regular low-slung (not really pictured as I do not have a Pendulum shape - just low) if that helps anyone when trying to figure it out for their own shape.

Don't get this bra if you have pendulous breasts, it does not help with shape to make you centered and slim. The sizing is good, i am 32 G and it works fine. it is good under all tops because the fabric is smooth, seamless. no show through. but if you are expecting help with shaping, especially for large, settled. east to west "horizontally gifted" breasts this is not the one. FEAR NOT, i highly recommend the wacoal Halo lace bra for that! it will give the excellent (side)shaping you want, and also smooth. :) brings the girls to center. (also, it frequently goes on sale, and they come out with fun colors. win win!!)

Love Wacoal bras and have a variety of styles. This one was not a good fit for me as the underwire dug in on my side and no adjustments made a difference. Otherwise is was great looking bra and the fit was great.
